General information5
Anti-theft protectionThe anti-theft coding of your radio naviga tion system prevents an operation of the 
system after a voltage interruption, e.g. duri ng a vehicle repair or after theft. After 
disconnecting the battery, disconnecting th e radio navigation system from the on-
board voltage of the vehicle and after a fuse failure, the code must be entered before 
the vehicle can be used again.Enter code– If a keypad appears after switching on with the command to enter the code, the  unit can be unlocked by entering the corr ect four-digit code number. The number 
of the possible attempts is shown in the bottom screen line.
– Press a digit from   to   on the digit block displayed on the screen. The digit is  accepted in the entry line.
– After a four-digit order has been entered, the group of digits will turn grey (inactive)  and no further digits can be accepted in the entry line.
– Press   on the screen in order to delete the digits in the entry line from right  to left and thereby correct your input, if necessary.
– If the correct code number is displayed in the entry line, press  .
Code number
The code number can only be called up “onl ine” via the Škoda system, as this guaran-
tees even more effective anti-theft protection. Please contact your authorized Škoda 
Service Partner, if necessary.
Incorrect code number
If an incorrect code is confirmed after entr y of the code, the procedure can be repeated 
twice . The number of possible attempts is  shown in the bottom screen line.
If the code number is entered incorrectly for the third time, the unit will be blocked for 
approx. one hour. It is possible to enter  again the safety code after one hour has 
expired, when the unit and the ig nition have been switched on.
If three invalid attempts are then made ag ain, the radio navigation system will be 
blocked again for an hour.
The cycle - three attempts, blocked fo r an hour - will continue to apply.
Note
The code is normally stored in the instrument  cluster. This ensures that it is automati-
cally decoded (convenience coding). Ma nual input of the code is normally not 
necessary.

Requirements for a dynamic route guidance
TMC (Traffic Message Channel) is a digital radio data service for  continuous transmis-
sion of traffic information. The unit has a continuous background of 
TMC traffic reports providing a TMC station 
at the current locati on can be received.
The quality of the transmitted traffic report s depends on the broadcast editing carried 
out by the radio station. The reception of  the TMC traffic reports cannot be switched 
on or off.
The station you are listening to does not have to be a TMC station.
TMC traffic reports can only be evaluated an d displayed by the unit if the navigation 
data for the currently driven area is stored in the unit memory or can be called up via 
an inserted navigation CD.
The current TMC traffic reports can be disp layed by pressing the range selector key 
.
Note
•
There may not be any advantage in avoiding the traffic jam if, as a result of the TMC 
traffic reports, the diversion is also heavily congested.
•
You can manually block the information for th e route in front of you if traffic prob-
lems ahead have not yet been included in the TMC traffic reports  ⇒page 30.
